Thread: Caribbean Pirates is broken.

    Caribbean Pirates is broken.

    Dear Staff,

    The Caribbean Pirates adventure is broken. The strong players steal all the maps and take all the trips. If you want to make more money, you should fix the Caribbean Pirates adventure. Normal players can not participate in the Caribbean Pirates adventure. Their maps are usually stolen as soon as they board a ship. Players should only be able to steal maps from players of equal power.

    Remember, happy players keep playing. Unhappy players quit. More players means more money.

    Carribean pirates is just a little bonus. From lvl 30 till lvl 47 i havent even used them for everyday matter, so you can just skip it, not a big deal. If you want to get succesfull ride - find strong player to carry you, for example you have 300k power - then find someone with 1,500k power to cover your back - thats all. Curently Caribbean pirates is only good way to hunt low lvl players, to get atleast some coins / credits, cus high lvl players after 50 lvl have no income from players of same lvl.

    This is PvP game after all, dont forget that. If you consider something as broken - it dosnt mean its really broken, sometimes its just our imagination. There is enaught other events types to use, as well as more coming in next patches, so dont panic.

    I agree with FGBrunner, however realize the "haves" simply state we need to grow to be able to compete. Since I'm unable to complete the mini-game due to the very reasoning stated, I will no longer participate in it.
    I appreciate the teamwork aspect and would have liked to see it succeed. It's broken and I'll not participate in a game that's so lopsided it punishes lower level players.

    You aren't punished whatsoever. It is only a small bonus

    Perhaps "punished" was a bit strong. Nonetheless, when guild members actually have to "try when the big guys are asleep" it pushes growing players away. I'll not give any more maps to those monster accounts. Perhaps something will change and make it worth playing. Until then, it'll just be a useless link, cluttering up the screen.

    You should have seen it when attackers didn't heal. Now that wasn't fun...

    I agree that it's broken. PVP gaming is usually sequestered mini-areas by level or power. Having new lvl 30 players preyed upon by 40+ is just stupid. I've tried at 10:00 PST, 20:00 PST and 0300 PST, and there's always some sharky butthead with ridiculous power, ten levels above me that beats me over the head and takes my map. It's not PVP when you have absolutely no chance of winning. It's just ritual sacrifice.

    Power is deceptive. However, it appears to be one of the few methods of measuring actual combat potential. I still stand with my previous statements, (minus "punished"). Perhaps the developers can measure the completion rate to see our purely anecdotal reports of skewed success or lack thereof.

    I have had ten map pieces. I have actually managed to set sail, once. We made it about 1 inch across the screen before our ship was sunk. Those are unacceptable odds, in my opinion. For those of you who say it isn't broken, I would love to ask (and get an honest answer) if your character's power is above 200k?

    Because for everyone else (the vast majority), it IS BROKEN.
